Gosh I love springtime, the smell of the jasmine and the sunshine just makes everything so exciting :)
So before I depart the notorious first trimester, I need to make some social commentary.
There is an unspoken "mommy club" that I am not sure if I want to be part of or not. I'm generally the minority when it comes to natural birthing, extended breastfeeding, delayed vaccinations etc. but all of a sudden I have been thrust into this mommy club and I am just like everyone else. Those who know me, know this is not my favourite thing. It's like some undercover secret society where the untold is acknowledged and only the pregnant are allowed to know.
For example, I have suffered quite badly with nausea. I tell another so called mommy club member, and they nod in understanding and say "it's crap hey?" and then they laugh a loud Ursula-the-evil-one in the little mermaid laugh *shocked* like they were waiting for someone else to go through this misery that is the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Seriously I would have listened if someone had told me this beforehand. They should have said it's like 6 weeks of food poisoning!
I would never trade this time for anything in the world, I am definitely realising more and more every day that I was definitely born for this, but I think I'm cancelling my subscription to the evil mommy club.
Happy Spring everyone!! Love you all MWA MWA

LOL glad the nausea is disappearing, and LOL at the mommy's club... it's all about survival.
